From Intention to Impact

A New Brand for the Next Era of Philanthropy

For 30 years, NPT has worked alongside donors, advisors, financial institutions, and nonprofits to expand the possibilities of charitable giving.

Today, new generations, technologies, and approaches to giving are reshaping philanthropy. NPT is evolving alongside these changes, building on a legacy of innovation to strengthen the connections between donors, advisors, nonprofits, and the communities they support.

Our new brand reflects the foundation we’ve built and where we’re headed: bringing together capital, expertise, and people to help create greater philanthropic impact around the world.

OUR NEW LOOK

 

 

 

 

NPT’s updated visual identity represents our continued integration in the philanthropic landscape. Our new brand mark and colors are a reflection of our new course forward.

Our logo is simple at first glance, but tells a story about who we are. Click through to learn more about the elements of our new brand mark:

The Orange Circle

The orange circle — echoed in the i in the word Philanthropic — lives at the center, as a reminder that philanthropy is at the core of everything we do. We’re mission-driven by nature, and we have always been independent, existing for the sole purpose of supporting philanthropic enterprise.

The Four Corners

Surrounding the orange circle are four corners, which lend the brand mark its structure. These represent the four major groups we work with to pursue our mission: donors, advisors, financial institutions, and nonprofits.

How They Work Together

When these elements are viewed together, the corners also represent arrows, offering a sense of direction from a central point outward. Taken together, the logo suggests that fostering philanthropic expertise through strong partnerships can create global impact.
